Countdown To Surgery Giveaway #1 Avon Set of 3 bags

Because I am feeling extremely guilty about being away from my blog a bit, I am having a few giveaways! First up is this 3 piece bag set from Avon-perfect for light shopping and while I wouldn't say they are HUGE, they are useful if you are getting a few things.

Giveaway starts today and ends September 25th at 11:59 pm EST. Open to ALL-so yes, I will ship internationally if needed.

For your first mandatory comment tell me, paper, plastic or reusable-or a combination of the three, what do you use in your home... (sorry no question mark, keyboard not working properly due to the cat and orange soda pop! lol)

We definetely use reusable. My mom owns an EmbroideMe store and had some made embroidered for Christmas last year. They ended up not working very well though. They aren't "shaped" like a grocery bag and are too big-they work well for other things though. Have a good day. Thanks!Bridgette Groschenjoeandbridge@aol.com

We use mostly plastic - because we use it for everything. Groceries, of course, but we also take them to Aldi to reuse, lunch bags, trash bags, transporting food to family events - if we need a bag, we've always got one on hand.

I hope you are okay! Surgery? I haven't been on the blog for a long time. I hope all is well and that everything goes okay. As for the giveaways, how wonderful but you should not have to feel bad about being away. We love you no matter what! :)

Well, in our home we use reuseable bags. The canvas ones are amazing because they don't hurt your hands when you finish shopping. :)

We're combo right now. We've recently gotten a few reusables, including two large, heavy-duty burlap ones that take up a fair amount of space, but we still get the occasional plastic bag to line the bathroom trash bin. Good luck with the surgery!

We use a combo of reusable and plastic bags. I'm trying to convert fully to reusable bags for but still need to get about 4 more to complete a full grocery shopping set. I've also learned to remember to put them back in the car as soon as I unload them.

We use plastic and reuseable, but we're trying to shift to mainly reuseable. We actually "reuse" the plastic ones for carrying things and for garbage, and we recycle them when we're finished. colorfulcarla@ gmail.com

I mostly use reusable...love my insulated bags to keep things either hot or cold. Woven bags to just carry "stuff." Sometimes get plastic bags for a small supply to use when I clean out my cats litter boxes, and paper bags for recycling papers and magazines. cats4me at frontiernet dot net

I only have three reusable bags, so I always end up either leaving some items unbagged and trying to contain them in the car somehow, or very guiltily using a couple plastic ones. We use the plastic bags around the house or for taking the dogs on walks, or take them back to the store to be reused.

I TRY to use reusable bags and a wonderful Monogrammed Market Tote that I won here: http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=6124255 .sometimes though i shop without having prepared and then I get plastic bags - because they have handles and it's easier to carry a bunch of them.
